The Hermanus whale season is here
Hermanus lies in the heart of the Cape Whale Route about 110 km from Cape Town. Highly recommended is Hermanus whale watching and white shark diving in season.
Hermanus has the only Whale Crier in the world, and he keeps visitors informed about the whereabouts of the whales and when the Hermanus whale season starts, and in his own right has become a major attraction. The kelp horn he blows has become the soundtrack to this seaside resort during the whale season.
Also of historic interest is the Old Harbour, which has remained unchanged from when it was the centre of activity in the fishing village. For art lovers, Hermanus is home to many artists whose works are displayed and sold at local shops, galleries and craft markets.
For the ecoutourist Hermanus is a dream come true! The town has been acknowledged by the World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF) as one of the twelve best spots for whale watching in the world, and visitors can see the whales spyhopping, breaching and lobtailing from vantage points in the cliffs, or even take a boat trip to get closer to the action.
